Chapter 95 Challenge
Seeing his smug look, some people gritted their teeth inwardly, while others nodded in approval. In any case, the fire jutsu he used had surpassed that of most people present, and he ultimately passed the test without resorting to trickery.
However, the unteamed genin looked at each other and fell silent for a moment.
What should I do?
It seems someone else has already cleared the level.
Trying to forge a new path like the other person did? That seems too foolish. Following their route? Would that even count as getting through?
As some were decisive and others hesitated, a somewhat familiar voice rang out from the back of the crowd.
"Earth Release: Earthquake!"
"Boom!!!!!" The ground suddenly trembled violently!
As an exceptionally powerful chakra surge emanated, earth dragons churned and the ground cracked on the wide ground in front of the central tower.
The sudden noise surprised everyone.
"What's going on!?"
"Who used ninjutsu?"
Soon, someone spotted the person using ninjutsu.
"Hokage-sama!"
"It's the Hokage!"
From behind the crowd, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had arrived at some unknown time, raised his right hand from the ground and slowly stood up. He straightened his Hokage hood, revealing a kind smile on his old face.
The tremors and roar of the earth suddenly subsided.
The site, which was originally riddled with traps and traces of explosions, has become brand new and smooth.
Hiruzen Sarutobi laughed and said, "The second round of the Chunin Exams is over."
Cheers and lamentations began to rise and fall.
Hiruzen Sarutobi observed everything, but said nothing. He stepped into the central tower, and the proctoring ninjas followed to organize everyone to enter.
"The Hokage will now announce the results of the Chunin Exams." Ten minutes later, on the battle platform inside the central tower, when a Jonin uttered these words, the Genin erupted in uproar.
"What? The Chunin Exams are over?"
"Only two matches?"
"Damn it! My performance wasn't great."
"Silence!" With a shout from the Jonin, the loud voice immediately drowned out the noise of the Genin.
In the silence, Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly spoke.
"Based on the combined performance of the first and second rounds of the Chunin Exams, the list of Chunin will now be announced."
Seeing the anxious looks on the faces of many genin, Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled.
"Of course, those who don't become genin shouldn't be discouraged."
"The rules for this Chunin Exam have been slightly changed. After the Chunin appointments are announced, anyone who believes they have the ability to become a Chunin can challenge for the position."
"If we can win, we can also get a Chunin spot."
As soon as he finished speaking, many of the lower-ranking ninjas' eyes lit up.
Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Hiruzen Sarutobi read out the list of Chunin.
"Promotion to Chunin this time:"
"Mizuki."
In the crowd, Shui Mu was suddenly startled, then a look of joy appeared in his eyes.
It worked!
He succeeded! From this day forward, he is no longer an ordinary genin, but a powerful chunin.
"Morino Hiki."
Ibiki Morino clenched his fist excitedly.
Genma Shiranui
As Hiruzen Sarutobi called out names one by one, those whose names were called were all excited, while those whose names were not called became increasingly nervous.
Some people aren't nervous.
For example, mute.
In the second trap setup, she played almost no role, and she knew that her chances of passing the exam based solely on her written test score from the first test were slim.
Sarutobi Asuma was quite nervous.
Although he thought he had performed well, he was afraid that his old man would do something inhuman.
Amidst his feigned calm tension, Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at his squad.
"Sarutobi Asuma".
Sarutobi Asuma's breathing became heavy for a moment.
"Red Sunset".
"God Moon Nebula".
Based on their performance during the exam, the result was reasonable, but the group was still somewhat excited.
What excited Shenyue Xingyun was the notification that popped up on the system panel.
[Temporary Mission: Chunin Exams (Pass the exams to become a Chunin) Completed!]
[Please select quest rewards: Ghost Vine Whip, Golden Rope, Marriage Chain]
[Demon Vine Whip: Noble Phantasm, possesses slight toughness and armor-piercing properties, deals 200% damage to female ninjas.]
【Phantom Rope (Replica): Possesses minor toughness and binding properties; hit rate against female ninjas is 300%】
[Bound by Fate: Noble Phantasm, a chain that binds lovers across a thousand miles, effective only for the most recent wearer. The wearer's resistance to the Succubus's Hand is reduced by tenfold. If the wearer is in danger, an irreversible summoning teleportation can be performed. Cooldown: 7 seconds]
sky)】
After considering the first two rewards for a while, Shenyue Xingyun ultimately chose the Marriage Chain. He could sense that this was a reward specially prepared by the system for Nohara Rin's mission.
As for the first two, although they double the damage against specific groups, their functionality is relatively limited, so even with doubled damage, the effect is still limited. Besides, enemies can be male or female.
On the stage, Hiruzen Sarutobi finished reading out the list of those promoted to Chunin.
The two girls who teamed up with Shenyue Xingyun, as well as the short-haired boy, all successfully advanced, but the short-haired boy's teammates did not.
It's worth mentioning that Might Guy also failed to advance.
The trap-making skills displayed by the other party in the second round of the test were so outrageous that, coupled with their mediocre written test scores, they failed.
When he didn't hear his name called after the list was read, Matt Kay was dejected for two seconds, like a wilted eggplant. Two seconds later, he was rekindled by the power of youth. The speed of his emotional change was astonishing.
"Everyone, take a break. The third round of challenges will begin in half an hour."
After the team disbanded, Might Guy began warming up.
He hadn't used up any chakra while inside the central tower, so he didn't need to rest.
Shenyue Xingyun walked over upon seeing this.
"Kai, isn't it too early to warm up now?"
"Are you going to warm up for half an hour?"
While stretching, Matt Kai said, "The power of youth keeps me going."
"Nebula, get ready, I'm going to challenge you!"
Shenyue Xingyun paused for a moment, then said, "Kai."
"Challenging me is not the best option."
Matt Kai continued moving: "Why do you say that, Nebula?"
"How can you refuse the challenges of youth?"
Shenyue Xingyun said, "Kai, of course I'm willing to accept your challenge."
"According to the rules, even if you win the challenge, I will not lose my Chunin rank."
"But don't you think it's a bit of a waste?"
Matt Kay: "What do you mean?"
Shenyue Xingyun leaned closer: "Kai, we cultivate together almost every day, so when can't we fight?"
"But this is the Chunin Exams."
"This is a rare opportunity. Don't you want to try facing a more challenging opponent?"
"A challenging opponent?" Matt Kai looked puzzled. "Is there anyone more challenging than you?"
As a close friend who spends every morning with her, he knows more about Shenyue Xingyun than anyone else.
The opponent has improved rapidly recently, especially in physical combat, making him a very rare sparring partner.
In response to Might Guy's question, Shingetsu Nebula replied affirmatively, "Of course."
"Shuimu is a very worthwhile target to challenge."
